Sprint was amazing as a rather highly refined brute force bit of engineering - 100g launches, etc.
You know how a rocket is sometimes described as a 'controlled explosion'? The concussion from a Sprint launch was severe enough that a large area around the launch pad would be lethal to any unprotected persons present during a launch. It basically explodes out of the silo.
